Dinner & a Movie....at the same place!!!

So, tonight we did something a little different. We went to the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema. It is a cinema chain here in Texas that is part cinema, part restaurant. You sit in a row of movie theater chairs like normal, but instead of a row in front of you, there is a long table.

There is a menu and pieces of paper on the table. The menu is HUGE, everything from your typical popcorn and candy, to burgers, shakes, pizza, and salads. Once you decide on your order, you write it on the paper, and a waiter comes and gets it. It was so awesome. Need a drink refill? Put up your paper and a waiter is write there to hook you up.

Its called a drafthouse because they do serve alcohol, but it seemed like most people ordered sodas and food. It was not any more expensive that going to a restaurant, and it was super fun and the food was awesome!!! The atmosphere was also really funky and eclectic. We will most definitely be going back!

Another rule is that they do not let in kids younger than six and no one under 18 can get in without a parent, which is nice when you are paying to see a movie. I love kids but hate trying to watch a movie in a theater with kids, especially when it is an adult movie.

We saw Inception and LOVED it....very fast paced and thought provoking...it keeps you guessing! Overall, great date with the hubby!
